I. Rules and Templates.

1. Game Version. The tournament will be held on version SoD 3.2(4.0) + HD mod of the latest current version + HW_rulez 1.38 (when a new actual patch is released, this rule must be changed).
2. The main innovation! All XL templates used in the tournament (five): 8mm6a,8хм12а, 6LM10a, 8xm8a(8xm8b), Spider.
will be placed in one file-template rmg.txt. Players use this file when generating the map, which includes all XL templates without template labeling (it won't be visible when viewing game information).
In the game it will look like this:

Download and unzip the zip archive (at the bottom of the topic) to the root folder with the game (8xm8b was used instead of 8xm8a).

3. Castle selection: random pair + trade.
The host generates a pair of random castles using a special button. Immediately after generation, each player can request a regeneration once for 500 coins as compensation to the opponent. If at least one castle is repeated during regeneration, that same player may (but is not obligated) request a free regeneration until a new pair of castles appears.
4. After trading for a castle, there is a trade for color. To speed up the negotiation process, the red color starts the bidding in the table.
5. The total number of restarts is 3 days, i.e., 111+111+111, 111+112, 113.
6. Time limit per turn with chess timer - 21:00+08:00+01:15
7. Roads are medium and fast.
8. Guild Hall rebuilding option enabled.
9. Library in "Tower" allowed.
10. Timeframe for one game – 2 weeks (explanation for those who need it: you must adhere to the gameplay schedule – 1 game every 2 weeks; if you started a game with an opponent, then the time frame for this game is 2 weeks; if the opponent ignores or refuses to finish the game within the specified period without valid reasons, you have the right to demand that an ODD be assigned; in case of non-appearance, the opponent receives a technical defeat).

II. Regulations

Stage 1 – Groups

Two players with the highest number of points advance from the group.
In case of equal points, places are distributed according to additional indicators (in order of priority):
1. Berger coefficient.
2. Head-to-head result.
3. If it is impossible to determine which players will advance to the playoffs based on previous indicators, the players will be offered a scheme for transition games. At the moment, it is impossible to foresee all possible combinations of results. Therefore, the final scheme will be developed based on the situation that develops in the groups at the end of the stage.

Victory – 3 points; defeat – 0; draw – 1 point (counted at stage 211+ at the discretion of the organizers).

The group stage ends on June 6, 2018
(no saves or replays will be accepted, results will be posted based on submitted tournament reports)

Stage 2 – Olympic System

On June 21, 2018, the playoff draw will take place.

Two players who took 1st and 2nd places from the groups advance and are randomly distributed into the bracket.
Games in the playOff stage are played according to the bо3 system (3-4 weeks).

III. Organizational Issues

I assume this was written about me? I won't be able to play for the next week, so there was no random selection. And I advise you to watch your words in the future.

Perfect leveling of Craig and Ainanin + bird external dwelling in the side treasure zone + 2-stack Dragon Utopia with speaker's hat + fast TP in the Tower computer decided the outcome of the match in my favor. Thanks for the game!

Thanks for the game!

Does even this make you angry?)) Sad.

// Must have saved up some luck in the recent "cash games," and it all came back in the Tournaments—a ton of dirty luck, like a Town Portal on the first try, КВ in the first Dragon Utopia, and a random hit that landed exactly when needed, wiping out the opponent's key heroes. One turn later, the situation would have been very bad. Thanks for the game!

He apparently saved up some luck in the recent "cash games" and spent it all in the Tournaments—a lot of dirty luck, like a Town Portal on the first try, КВ in the first Dragon Utopia; he flew in for free exactly when needed and covered the opponent's key heroes. One turn later, the situation would have been very bad. Thanks for the game!

It is hard to say if the situation for the opponent would have been very bad, as with control and a decent army, he was already standing quite well in any case. However, he dealt with me quite unexpectedly. On the next turn, the Dragon Utopia on the 1st flank was taken, everything was transferred to Tantu, who jumped into the treasure zone, immediately took the second one, and would have cleared the treasure zone. Considering that there was a Castle, very quickly came a non-critical unit with boots, Gosha arrived, got a log, and there were 12 angels from concentration; Dimension Door was built, everything looked promising, but I just wasn't allowed to make that one necessary move.

Thanks for the game and good luck further on!
